The Zapruder film : reframing JFK's assassination

"In 486 frames - a mere six feet of celluloid - Abraham Zapruder's iconic film captures from beginning to end the murder of President John F. Kennedy in broad daylight. An essential piece of evidence, the film has become nearly synonymous with the assassination itself and has generated decades of debate among conspiracy theorists and defenders of the Warren Commission's official report. Until now, however, no scholar has produced a comprehensive book-length study of the film and its relation to the tragic events of November 22, 1963."

"David Wrone, one of our nation's foremost authorities on the assassination, reexamines Zapruder's film with a fresh eye and a deep knowledge of the forensic evidence. He traces the film's forty-year history from its creation on the "grassy knoll" by Dallas dress manufacturer Zapruder through its initial sale to Life magazine and early reproductions and its analysis by the Warren Commission and countless assassination researchers, licensing by the Zapruder family, legal battles over bootleg copies, and sale to the federal government for sixteen million dollars."--Jacket.

概要：

Analysing Abraham Zapruder's iconic film frame-by-frame, David Wrone builds a convincing case against the official findings of the "crime of the century": the assassination of JFK. Tracing its 40-year history, he demonstrates how the film itself refutes the lone-gunman and single-bullet theory.続きを読む
